Major airports across the country -- including in New York City, Chicago and Atlanta -- are refusing to play a video featuring Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem blaming Democrats for the impacts of the government shutdown.
Many of the airport representatives said their facility's policies bar the showing of political content. Some also pointed to the Hatch Act, a law that restricts the political activities of federal employees as well as some state and local employees who are involved in or work in federally funded programs.
The roughly 30-second video began rolling out to airports last week, according to DHS.
